This Magnolia produces erect, pastel lavender-pink, tulip-shaped blooms with white interiors that are paler towards the tips. Its unique color among magnolias and its pleasantly fragrant flowers make it a desirable option. Magnolia 'Heaven Scent' has an upright, rounded growth habit, flowers in mid-spring from an early age, and is an excellent street tree. Magnolia 'Heaven Scent' is deciduous, not native to New Zealand, and a hybrid between Magnolia liliiflora 'Nigra' and Magnolia x veitchii 'Peter Veitch'. 'Heaven Scent' was produced by Todd Gresham sometime from 1955 to 1969 at his home in Santa Cruz, California, United States.

Foliage

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.

Soil pH

When designing and planting your garden, it can be useful to know whether the soil is acid or alkaline, as different plants thrive in different soils. The soil pH is a number that describes how acid or alkaline your soil is. The soil pH scale will give you an idea of what soils a species will grow in.

Acidic soils have a pH below 7.0

Alkaline soils have a pH above 7.0

Neutral soils have a pH of 7.0
